Really enjoyed listening to wrc+ this weekend. Stage end interviews were MILES better than they've been in a long-long time.
Ostberg + Becs are a great combo. Ostberg has the knowledge and a little bit of banter here and there with Becs made it a real pleasure to listen to.
Wish there was someone else in the booth with Julian commentating the power stage.
I don't know the name of the other guy but he seems to be a bit out if it for me.

Today I think you can do comms coveage with a large drone or remotely controlled helicopters.
That will reduce cost a lot.
With new satcom providers cost of that will come down. Needed bandwith will maybe be a brakepad on spacex satcom in the beginning.
but a lot of new solutions that would be interested in being part of WRC could be utilized.

If we had 3 or 4 retirements among WRC cars then we would have seen 3 or 4 WRC2 cars make it into the Live TV stage coverage. Low attrition level is good thig but it has a negative consequence in reduced coverage of support fields

One thing is what is shown on allive. But usually you got a 2-3 min part with WRC2/3 in daily highlights and sometimes even own vid.
So far from Arctic there is exactly nothing about WRC2/3 in any of these and no vids.

Re Mads: yes his knowledge and info are great, but he never knows when to stop talking. Like with anyone this grates after a while.
At least King & Porter have pauses to let you hear the cars go by.

Today without bigger drama for Rally1, so expecting tomorrow lot of retirements maybe, because there is NEVER rally without issues. Let's see guys, favorizing Ogier for the win probably, depends on...
